I reached a personal milestone today: the completion of the first book that I’ve read entirely on a mobile phone. That may not seem like much of a milestone, but I’ve read hundreds, if not thousands of books in my life and whilst the whole ‘read a book on a phone’ thing started out as a bit of fun, I’ve now come to the conclusion that it’s pretty good. I don’t want to buy a Kindle, the iPad is too big to always be with me and all of a sudden, my criteria for phone replacement in August includes the ability to read a book on it. Think about it … I will always have a book with me, wherever I go. That may seem like a small thing, but the book I read just seemed to happen, filling in a thousand tiny cracks of the day, whilst I was waiting for someone or was travelling somewhere. From humble beginnings can mighty things happen.

I have actually found the Kindle app to be a godsend – means my (e)books sync across all my devices (including where I have read up to..) – so whether I have my phone, Kindle, iPad or laptop with me I *always* have my books. Pretty useful given I spend half my life on trains and buses :)
